WELCOME TO RELEAF
An interactive and explorative experience that combines sensors, plants and sound to create a calm and creative environment
THIS IS RELEAF
This project was created with the aim of designing an exhibit to increase young girls' interest in emerging technology. It took place in late 2018 at the M.Sc. program Interaction Design and Technologies and was a collaboration between Chalmers and Universeum in Gothenburg where the project was later exhibited. #NyTeknik
SENSORS
Releaf is an interactive environment that, with the help of sensors, aims to show young girls what is possible within the area of new technology. Sensors used are flex sensors, light sensors, tilt ball and accelerometer.
PLANTS
To show that technology can indeed be both fun, relaxing and innovative, the sensors are integrated into plants, which provides a calming environment and shows that technology can be implemented into almost anything.
MUSIC
By activating the sensors through touching or bending the leaves of the plants, the visitors were be able to create music with their friends and contribute to the creative sound environment that is Releaf.
